Although I was seeing a new hygienist everything turned out perfectly because the hygienist actually listened to my concerns.

The hygienist also took xrays and explained everything he was doing. He treated me like the intelligent woman that I am. I.left my appointment feeling well cared for.

Aside from that this office does not return calls, does not fill prescriptions when they say they are, and cancels appointments on a whim. They also gave me an attitude when I asked for my child to be covered when they were doing multiple X-rays during her procedure. When she had trouble and jaw pain because they didn't file the filling to her bite, our calls were not returned. When the nerve died in the tooth due to his poor practice ( according to a specialist), they canceled our appointment and said to go somewhere else via text message. Based on other reviews I don't know how this place is still open. If it was an option I would give them a zero out of 10.

I had Dr. Saoud install three implants. The process took a year and a half due to intense pain…read moreafter having two teeth pulled to make room for the implants, waiting for bone growth, numerous delays waiting for materials, lack of communication from the dental office, and some procedures having to be repeated. The implants were finally completed last June. A few days later, I began suffering from face pain which I attributed to sinus pain. Three visits to an ENT and a sinus CAT scan could not find a reason for the pain. Then I saw allergist and had allergy testing. No problem was found. I then thought that maybe there was a problem with the implant and saw Dr. Saoud who took an X-ray and assured me there was no problem with the implants. About a week later, the bridge that attached to the implant unexpectedly fell out. Immediately the pain I'd been experiencing for six months disappeared. I then realized that the pain was most likely due to something with the implants. I found another dentist who checked the implants and found the implants were loose and at an angle rather than being straight. He tightened them and reinstalled the bridge. No more pain. Six months of suffering because of the implants were not sufficiently tightened. If I had to do it again, I would go to a dentist who specializes in implants. I have decided to stay with the dentist who quickly found and corrected the problem.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with The Wilhelm Dental Group in La Plata, MD, and I…read morewould never recommend this practice. My son went in for a routine cleaning, during which the hygienist dislodged his permanent retainer. Instead of taking responsibility, she implied that it was already loose. My son, who has had this retainer for nearly twenty years without any issues, told her that it was securely in place before the appointment, but she completely disregarded him. When Dr. Eric Wilhelm came in for the exam, my son explained what had happened, yet Dr. Wilhelm also dismissed his concerns, implying that he was lying. They initially scheduled a follow-up appointment two weeks later to address the issue, expecting him to endure the discomfort of a dangling wire in his mouth. I called the office immediately, stating that waiting that long was unacceptable, and only then did they offer an appointment that same afternoon. Upon reviewing the bill, I noticed my son was charged ninety dollars for a periodic oral evaluation and one hundred fifty-five dollars for a comprehensive oral evaluation, essentially being billed twice for the same service. When I accompanied him back to the office, I raised this concern with their office manager, Ginger. She admitted the mistake but became defensive when I questioned whether this was a common occurrence for new patients. Dr. Wilhelm then came into the waiting area to boast about his fifty-three years of experience and claim that he had never received a complaint. Instead of addressing the issue professionally, he acted arrogantly and dismissively. They ultimately refunded the ninety-dollar charge, but the lack of accountability, professionalism, and basic courtesy was astonishing. To top it all off, when my son was back in the chair to have the issue fixed, I overheard Dr. Wilhelm pressuring him to admit that the retainer must have already been loose. My son, who avoids confrontation, was visibly uncomfortable. The fix for the dangling wire took less than two minutes, making the delay, stress, and dismissive treatment even more frustrating. This practice lacks integrity, professionalism, and empathy for its patients. Neither Dr. Wilhelm nor Ginger apologized for their mistakes or showed any concern for the discomfort they caused. Instead, they were defensive, condescending, and unapologetic. If you value honesty, professionalism, and competent dental care, I strongly urge you to avoid The Wilhelm Dental Group.

There seems to be a very high staff turnover rate, which impacts the quality of service. Records are often disorganized--x-rays get lost, charts can't be located, and billing issues are a recurring problem. My most recent visit was especially disappointing. The cleaning felt rushed and incomplete, and it didn't feel like my teeth were properly cared for. As a result, this will be my last visit. I'll be scheduling with another provider to have my teeth cleaned properly.

However everyone was very nice the whole time. I was hesitant to keep going back due to the long dentist appt but figured I'd give them another chance and it was maybe just a day they were behind. I'm glad I did because since it's been great and we have been in and out. We have had some filings and also my son had to get a tooth pulled and they were all great and always very understanding and down to earth. Thankful I gave it a second chance!

Firstly, I completely identify with the other reviews that call this practice out on the upselling…read more(mouthguards and such); and they certainly like not even telling you that a particular product or service is not covered by your insurance. My deciding factor on finding another practice is when they asked me if I wanted a fluoride treatment after my cleaning...I agreed but after the cleaning and x-rays and lecture by the doctor, they never did the fluoride treatment; the guy at the desk then did ask if I got the fluoride (to his credit) and I thought and said, "Gee, I don't think so, come to think of it...they did the cleaning and x-rays and such and actually, I don't think they ever did..." He asked someone and confirmed it wasn't done. BUT someone had presented the paperwork to the front desk as the fluoride having been done. This almost slipped through the cracks and I also may not have noticed since the receipt they give you is not itemized. Attention to detail, please. I'm just glad it was was a fluoride treatment they forgot and not something more severe like forgetting something during oral surgery. I think this place has improved after the last doctor was there, who put a crown in to prevent a tooth from being infected but then it actually got infected anyway AFTER he put the crown in, and I had to pay thousands more to have the current doctor to fix it. So, in summary, maybe try some place else.

Most dental offices are open three-days a week. I called Dr. Wilhelm's office which was closed and left a message on his recorder explaining my problem and continued calling other dental offices. Within an hour Ginger, in Dr. Wilhelm's office, had reviewed my message, called me back, and told me that Dr. Wilhelm would open his office for me. I was in his dental chair an hour later. Dr. Wilhelm explained what was happening and stabilized my dental emergency with medication. On my next visit, he had reviewed my x-rays, assessed the issue, and explained what was needed to resolve my problems. "Dr. Eric" thus became my new dentist. Dr. Eric developed a comprehensive plan to upgrade my dental issues that caused my emergency. This plan involved extractions, a root canal, implants, a new bridge, and crown work. For nearly 14 months Dr. Eric executed the plan flawlessly and coordinated the work with other dental specialists. After many visits to Dr. Eric's office and many interactions with his very professional staff (Ginger and Monica) my experiences and treatments have been outstanding. Dr. Eric is the best dentist that I have ever known. He has earned my respect for his skills and knowledge. Dr. Eric and his staff are outstanding professionals. If you want one of the best dentists in Southern Maryland, see Dr. Eric Wilhelm. I highly recommend him. He's the best! Matt J.
